What year did skeeter begin using composite instead of wood transoms?

I want to say the 90's but not sure. I had an '86 16' skeeter and it had wood floors, stringers and transom.
96'
Nothing but wood, fiberglass and foam in that 88 hull.
My understanding is 97' was the first year offering all composite hulls for the ZX line, hence the ZX185c even on dual console boats.
Don't be affraid of the wood. It's been used for ages. Besides you can always replace it.

I have a brochure for the 96' 180ZX and it states that, " 1996 is the first year for our new composite transom and stringers". It also goes on about the improved decks which are laminated.
